When we last left the Dynamic Duo, they were both lamenting about the
lack of new material for the show. Will this week fare any better for
the Trained Monkey and Mr. Rapey Face?

The Box Office report makes Jacob angry, and you don’t want to see him
when he is angry. Actually this episode has Jacob angry through almost
the entire thing, and Brian laments on how rare it is to actually hear
Jacob laugh.

In movie news, Diablo Cody, 20th Century Fox, JJ Abrams, Eddie Murphy,
and Butterfly Effect all get mentions. TV brings us Star Trek: TNG and
the release of the 4th season on BluRay release as well as a new segment
that Jacob has called “Hollywood Is Nuts!” And Jacob brings back the
“Movies I hate but the general public adores” segment.

All this and more on this, the final issue of Volume 2 of The Gorram Nerd Hour.

The
triumvirate of douche is complete this week, and Jeff, Kevin and Dave
talk about Netflix original programming off of Kevin's review of Orange is the New Black. They each pick what show they'd love to see Netflix resurrect.

MOLI's results from last week prompt one of the zeebs to issue a
challenge of sorts to our listeners. For this week's battle of songs
from before 1960, Camm is up first with the smooth vocal stylings of Sam
Cooke, with the song "You Send Me", heard here...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pX6QlnlMqjE Tony goes with the rock n roll hit "Johnny B. Goode", by Chuck Berry, heard here...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8JULmUlGDA.

Vic Mignogna, best known for his anime voice work in Bleach and Naruto,
takes on the iconic role of Captain Kirk while continuing the original
Star Trek series on as if it got a fourth season. He assembles a group
of recognizable names together and begins a new season of Star Trek.
Does it work? You're about to hear Jacob's opinion on it.

Jacob and Ryan start off the show by catching up for the week. Jacob
bores Ryan with strange facts about an episode of The X-Files. Ryan
returns the favor by boring Jacob with talk of a certain video game and
reading from a Facebook post.

Bill Oberst Jr. is back. Jacob and Brian first met him at Rapture Horror
Expo last October. You can hear that conversation on Vol 1 Issue 4.
This time they talk about french kissing corpses, Star Trek, Ricardo
Mantalban's chest and a lot more.

Masked Blogster is joined by Liger, Maser and Mr. E Marquee to talk
about San Diego Comic Con, performance enhancing drugs in sports, the
ongoing saga of Harold, Bronson of the week, comics of the week and
much much more!

There are a lot of big stories to cover this week, and in the middle of
the show, The Godfather stops by to discuss Phil Mickelson's Open
Championship victory. Father and son discuss how Phil was able to win,
what his place in golf history is now, and how Tiger failed yet again.
You'll also get the Godfather's perspective on the death of boxer Emile
Griffith, a closeted gay athlete from back in the day.

The big stories that Tony and The Lion cover for you include the Ryan
Braun suspension and what might happen to A-Fraud, a strange contract
involving new Clipper J.J. Redick, a big contract for Boston's Dustin
Pedroia, and RGIII being cleared for training camp.

In addition, we visit the Lion's Den, we have an MLB pitcher who is the
subject of this week's Pussification segment, and we have another
country that is up for a Sandusky award.

Once again as a public service to our listeners, we at The Atomic
Fallout Society present another educating experience with "Educating The
Masses" with our own Brian Smith. This time to go along with the
upcoming Wolverine movie, Brian gives the lowdown on one of the better
Wolverine storylines in recent memory, "Old Man Logan". Listen in and
learn about this storyline that you MUST read more on.

We also have
reviews as Brian reviews the first annual issue from Hawkeye, Dave
reviews the latest Flash issue and Tony reviews the start of "Hunger"
that may leave you even more hungrier... or not-so-hungry. That and we
talk more about the biggest and baddest Canadian superhero not named
Puck: Wolverine.

The Atomic Fallout Society... we hear that Hugh Jackman is a big fan of our show.

In Part Dos of Bank on Action, the Triotastic Trio covers apparent
laziness and lack of creativity by asking the listeners to name some of
the new segments. Also, a general lament of the Diambondbacks bullpen
and lack of hitting is shared, along with discussion about Ryan Braun
and the City of Chicago approving renovations including a Jumbotron to
Wrigley Field. The guys talk the upcoming Bare Knuckle Boxing
Pay-Per-View and an ever so slightly tamer "What Would Taylor Do" plus
"other stuff that doesn't suck," on this, part the second of the Bank on
Action podcast.

In the first part of this episode, Taylor, Blogster and JV kick things
off with a call to Crash Test Cody as he prepares to cash in his FSW No
Limits title shot in Las Vegas. Also, TNA keeps letting people go, and
the Daniel Bryan Lovefest continues. All this and more in Part Uno of
the Bank on Action Podcast.

Dennis Farina has passed away, and it seems that every week the guys are commiserating another celebrity passing.

Joss Whedon has told us that there will be no Hank Pym in the new Age of Ultron movie. What?!

12 Monkeys is coming to the small screen, and all Jacob can ask is “Why?”

The new Freddie Mercury biopic looks like a reality, but Sasha Baron
Cohen won’t be playing the frontman of the legendary band Queen. Brian
is thanking the rock gods right now.

A Fight Club sequel? Sure, why the fuck not? Oh, the boys know why not. It’s going to be TERRIBLE!

Shortlist.com brings us another Top 10 list, but this time from the minds of none other than Nick Frost and Simon Pegg.

And it looks like there’s going to be about another 50 years of Supernatural. Jacob is not pleased.

SDCC was this past weekend, and the biggest news was definitely the
Batman/Superman movie. Brian seemed more pleased than Jacob, but of
course it isn’t coming out until 2015, so LET THE SPECULATION BEGIN!

To finish off the show this week, Jacob gives you 10 minutes of his
interview with actor Bill Oberst Jr., from such work as Abraham Lincoln
Vs. Zombies and Take This Lollipop. The full conversation will be
available on Friday.

The opening banter from your favorite zeebs centers around Camm's mom,
who is staying with him temporarily. Camm draws parallels from her stay
to when Tony was still living there, which Tony finds amusing. Tony also
tells of how the Zimmerman jury cost him some money.

MOLI presents the listeners with vastly different duets. Tony offers up
an inspirational song featuring two of the best singers on the planet,
as Celine Dion combines with Andrea Bocelli to perform "The Prayer",
heard here...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8RG-U1LAG0
Camm goes with "You're All I Need", a duet featuring the rapping of
Method Man and the vocal stylings of Mary J. Blige, heard here... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_Xro3Cc_xk

Mike Pesca is a two time Edward R. Murrow award winner National Sports
Correspondent for NPR, and host of Slate's #1 podcast. After an
interview, Mike performs open heart surgery with the TDP boys to fix the
Big 3 sports in America. Also, a game of Either/Or.

There are certain directors Jacob really doesn't like - Uwe Boll, Renny
Harlin, Michael Bay and too many more to list. He's never been a fan of
director Stephen Sommers. Does Odd Thomas sway his opinion? Or does
Jacob add him to the list?

The movie stars Anton Yelchin, Willam Dafoe, Addison Tamblin and Gugu
Mbatha-Raw and based on a novel by Dean R. Koontz. Will this film be
better than Phantoms, or will it fall even further down into Corey Haim
depths like Watchers? (You thought I was gonna make some kind of
tasteless death joke about Corey Haim, didn't you?)

Brian stops by to make the FTU guys uncomfortable. Jacob and Ryan are
still arguing about who's to blame for missing a show two weeks ago.
Ryan calls Jacob rapey, and so Jacob goes off on a creepy story of using
taxis to stalk people. Ryan pulls a guy over to ask about his Google
eyepiece. They throw in a little talk about alternate universes.
Essentially, it's more of the same - two guys who aren't even
intentionally trying to out weird each other who are basically trying to
out weird each other.

The guys are back, and up for discussion this week is the conclusion of
the Dwightmare. Tony doesn't think his decision to join the Rockets was
all about winning, but will Leo agree? They also talk about which NBA
teams they think are best suited for a run at the NBA title next season.

With the recently-concluded MLB All-Star Game, the guys unveil a
combination Time Machine/List segment, where the top 10 most memorable
MLB All-Star games are discussed. Find out which game Leo decides to
hear a clip from.

Other topics include the British Open (which is already underway), Andy
Murray winning Wimbledon, and the Dodgers ending the first half on a
high note. There's also another live horse racing wager during the
Lion's Den.

Finally, there are two weeks' worth of Sandusky awards to give out, and
with the George Zimmerman/Trayvon Martin case wrapped up, you know the
guys have thoughts on that!

This is the week that all fanboys and fangirls have been waiting
for... the 91st episode of the Atomic Fallout Society... and the San Diego
Comic Con. Why are the guys NOT at the San Diego Comic Con? It might be
because they might be sick and tired of dealing with the crowds and the
raised prices of almost everything out in San Diego this time of year.
Listen to this episode and hear the rants and apprehension of going back
to the con for some of the guys. But first, we have reviews...

Tony
reviews the latest Deadpool, and it is a GROOVY issue. That basically
sums it up. Brian reviews the latest Justice League of America coming
off of yet another sudden death at the hands of Superman... wait a
minute, haven't they learned their lesson already? Dave reviews the
debut issue of Superior Carnage. Now that's a guy that kills for a
living...

Thursday, July 18, 2013

Camm
and Kevin talk technical glitches, orphans on television in the 1980s,
how to be an effective manager, the origin of phrases, life after porn,
crazy broads, pretty sisters, torturing the kids' future boyfriends and
Kevin sings for no good reason.

Masked Blogster and Taylor Made are joined by JV in this show that
interviews former WWE Tough Enough contender "Big Nasty" Eric Watts.
Top 5 Wrestling Catch Phrases and a bunch more wrestling talk in part
one of episode 51!!!

Wednesday, July 17, 2013

The boys both like to make fun of Glee, but not today. Sadness struck
the other day when news of Corey Monteith's death in Canada surfaced. He
was only 31.

It seems that the Pom Far is affecting Zach Quinto’s brain, and his
claims about the next installment of Star Trek may be a little off.

What the hell is a Sharknado?

Weekend box office was a little sad this past weekend. Despicable Me 2
took the #1 spot once again, which is fine. It's a family film. Fine. We
get it. But Grown Ups 2 was #2 forcing Pacific Rim to the #3 slot.

With the Cornetto trilogy coming to a close, Edgar Wright is all ready to start on Ant Man!

Kanye West is an idiot, and SDCC is right around the corner. What more could you ask for?

espressogossip.com has a list of movie posters doctored to show the original actors cast before the change. Go look that the list. It's worth it.

Jacob brings you a new segment to end the show, and Brian calls him out for his inability to fill time.

All this and a whole lot more on this episode of The Gorram Nerd Hour.

Monday, July 15, 2013

Jacob and Isaac, your hosts of The Gorram Nerd Hour Presents Holodeck
Malfunction, are back with a new monthly series called The Science Of
Fiction. In the first episode, they discuss robots and the sci-fi authors
that have inspired scientists to create them.

They discuss the influence of Isaac Asimov, Philip K. Dick, Richard
Matheson and Arthur C. Clarke and how their writings changed the course
of history.

Tune in next month when they discuss Cloning.

Too Beautiful to Live cohost, and cohost of KIRO radio's The John Curley
Show with Andrew Walsh stops by to end his effete liberal ways by
making some tough decisions. The gang settles in for a decisive update
on Song is a Bummer, a special game called Color Me Bad, and a session
of Either/Or.

It was only fitting that Asylum would release a new mockbuster called
Atlantic Rim right before Guillermo Del Toro unleashes his Pacific Rim
to the world. This mockbuster stars the likes of David Chokachi from
Baywatch, Treach from Naughty By Nature and Graham Greene from Dances
With Wolves. Give Jacob's review a listen. And if you choose to watch
Atlantic Rim, rest assured that even if Pacific Rim sucks, it'll be 1000x
better than this.

Sharknado, a SyFy original movie about sharks flying around inside
tornadoes to attack people on land stars Ian Ziering (Beverly Hills,
90210), Tara Reid (American Pie) and John Heard (C.H.U.D.). Need we say
more? Jacob watches it so you don't have to.

Saturday, July 13, 2013

Jacob and Ryan start off by assigning blame to each other about who was
responsible for why there wasn't a show last week. Ryan rips into a
couple of bands with poor quality recordings. They both spend a moment
talking about how much they love Andrew Jackson Jihad. Jacob and Ryan
both have trouble remembering who brought what to play on the show.
Jacob plays a little joke on Ryan on air. Jacob couldn't help but remark
about the Hello Kitty camel toe on the wall at Samurai Comics again,
just like he did on Vol 2 Issue 25 of The Gorram Nerd Hour.

Thursday, July 11, 2013

Jacob O'Neal interviews Kristen DiAngelo, who made a documentary film recently called American
Courtesans. It was an insider's look into the sex trade. Most of the time
when one of these films gets made, it's from the outsider's perspective.
DiAngelo, a sex worker herself, was able to give us a different
perspective. Jacob talks to her about the movie, the lives of sex
workers, religious beliefs within the trade and much more. American
Courtesans is available on Video On Demand and DVD on July 12th, 2013.

The celebration of 50 episodes is the focus in this episode as the hosts

5 contest is also announced during this momentous episode!!!
